Plus that goal should have been disallowed.
Yep, failure on all accounts.
On a side note, from the NHL's perspective, they really want the Devils to win so it becomes interesting again. I barely watched any of game 3 and 4 but I've been watching 5 now that its slightly interesting.
The pride of the Devils avoided a sweep, but I really think the Kings could be in legitimate trouble if they lose game 5. I think they'll win, but I'd rather they not so it gets more interesting.
I had them losing game 5 to Phoenix and winning in 6 though. A game 5 loss has to happen sometime... Right? The Kings might lose a lot of composure if it happens here.
Fun fact is I sort of had the Devils losing in the finals before the postseason started (I figured they'd get soft teams like Florida and NY, while Boston/Pittsburgh/Philadelphia pounded each other enough for the Devils to sneak through). My WCF was Blues>Canucks with a 7 game scare on the Canucks by the Kings.
I think I was wrong about the Blues!
Yes my "favorite" to win the cup going in was the only team the Kings swept.
Lolme.
The Devils haven't been swept in 43 straight best of 7 series, most of any of the leagues. They've had one big goaltender during that stretch.
Marty just will not let it happen it seems.
